Consistently improving my technology skillset: starting with GIS, moving to web development, now I am combining data analytics with robotic process automation.
I am currently building a medical technology startup company, The Valor Solution, to bring automation technologies to the medical billing industry. I also enjoy being full-time faculty at Central Arizona College, where I teach computer science to students and write new curriculum.
Searching for a position that incorporates cloud solutions with data science. It would be a plus if the data is about sustainability, environmental, urban, or other earth systems.
